Welcome to Rio Tinto Diamonds

Welcome to the Rio Tinto Diamonds website. Here you will gain an insight into the full scope of our diamond group activities – from our global exploration programmes, to our mining operations and the sorting, processing and sales and marketing of our diamonds.

As Managing Director of Rio Tinto Diamonds, I have a responsibility to run a safe and profitable business, and deliver value against all our stakeholders’ expectations. I am personally committed to Rio Tinto Diamonds' long term goals - to provide a reliable supply of diamond products that are mined to the highest possible health, safety, environmental and community standards. These standards, together with strong partnerships with our customers and with international diamond and jewellery organisations, will ensure that Rio Tinto Diamonds prospers in a very competitive market.

You will therefore find that this website is devoted to our diamond exploration, production and marketing activities, as well as our abiding commitment to sustainable development and corporate social responsibility in the diamond industry. For whatever reason you may be visiting this website – as a customer, a student, a researcher, a journalist, a prospective employee or a business person – I hope you will gain an understanding of Rio Tinto’s diamond activities and our long term commitment to the diamond industry.

I welcome any feedback and comments you may have about this website.
